No, they don't like Rachel Notley. Bad Rachel, bad Notley! Alberta's energy giants are soiling their dainties over the evisceration of their Conservative minions at the hands of those really awful New Democrats.

Now more than ever Big Oil is going to be pressing Harper to go it alone and drive through those pipelines, especially Northern Gateway which Notley has already said she will not support.

It'll be fascinating to watch old Beelzebub deal with this one. Maybe he'll choose to stay in Europe and hang around for the 80th anniversary of WWII. Then again, maybe Junior will come to their rescue.

I have a feeling, Mound, as an object lesson to the rest of us lest we stray electorally in October, that Canada's petrocrats will want to make an example of Notley by curtailing/cancelling investments in the oil fields of Alberta. That would teach all of us the folly of thinkingl for ourselves, eh?
